Patients with suppressed immunity are at the highest risk for hospital-acquired infections.
Among these, invasive candidiasis is the most prevalent systemic fungal nosocomial …

A reliable estimate of Candida parapsilosis antifungal susceptibility in candidemia patients
is increasingly important to track the spread of C. parapsilosis bloodstream infections and …

This study aimed to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of kaempferol and
quercetin against planktonic and biofilm forms of the Candida parapsilosis complex. Initially …

The factors enabling Candida spp. infections are secretion of hydrolytic enzymes,
adherence to surfaces, biofilm formation or morphological transition, and fitness attributes …

Background The aim of this study was to determine the biofilm formation, the extracellular
enzymatic activities of 182 clinical isolates of the Candida parapsilosis complex. Methods …

Candida parapsilosis is globally distributed and recognised for causing an increasing
proportion of invasive Candida infections. It is associated with high crude mortality in all age …

Candida parapsilosis complex is one of the most common non-albicans Candida species
that cause candidemia, especially invasive candidiasis. The purpose of this study was to …

Candida parapsilosis (sensu lato), which represents a fungal complex composed of three
genetically related species–Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto, Candida orthopsilosis and …

Background: candidiasis is the primary fungal infection encountered in patients undergoing
prolonged hospitalization, and the fourth leading cause of nosocomial bloodstream …

Purpose. Antifungal resistance and several putative virulence factors have been associated
with the pathogenicity of the Candida parapsilosis species complex. The objective of this …
